clean the oven cavity. While running the Self Clean cycle,
you may notice smoking or an odor. This is normal;
especially if the oven is heavily soiled.
During Self Clean, the kitchen should be well ventilated to
minimize the odors from cleaning.
Before Starting Self Clean:
f Remove the oven racks, broiler pan, broiler grid, all
cookware, aluminum foil or any other material from the
oven.
